There have been several changes and new rules around the mandatory EBUG position. To qualify, a goalie must not have played in an NHL game under a standard player contract, played more than 80 professional games, or played professional hockey in the previous three seasons. EBUGs also will all wear No. 00 and must conform to the equipment-sizing charts that govern their NHL counterparts.

That means being measured for the appropriate pant and chest protector sizes and having their pads sent to Kay Whitmore of hockey operations at the NHL offices in Toronto to make sure they're within the sizing limits corresponding to individual leg measurements.
